We all received our diplomas from the Sampere Institute. Every one was happy to complete an arduous task. We were given certificates and the thanks from terrific instructors that care about the students but also that we were able to take something more that would benefit our lives. I want to thank St. Petersburg College, the staff that put this program together and the Professor who becomes more than just your instructor. We are now becoming sad due to the realization that this study abroad program is coming to an end and that we are leaving this magnificent country. See everyone soon. Joseph and Zynap Camera

Our experience started June 25th  when we arrived in Madrid, the start of our adventure. The city offered beautiful architecture, with old and new buildings, the Museo del Prado, and restaurants known as Tapas bars. The food exceeded your wildest dreams it included beef, fish, ham, and delicious desserts. The weather was comfortable, with soft cool breezes and the people were extremely friendly and pleasant to be around. Spain meets the needs and desires of all generations. It’s the place that you will fall in love with. We are now getting on the bus and heading to Salamanca. To be continued…
